The aim of this study is to act as a bridge between science and industry by making use of innovation and to try to develop a new model proposal called “Technology Transfer and Development Center” for the development of this role by emphasizing the role and importance of the bridge established by Technoparks between University-Industry cooperation, which is an important interface. Attention was paid to include all stakeholders who have a say in science and industry at the local or regional level in the proposed model. It is thought that the local level science and industry actors will be represented under the roof of the technopark (through the creation of a liaison office) in universities and coordinated from a single center. Thus, it has been tried to prove that Technoparks will play a more active role in creating added value and increasing competitiveness at national and international level through a synergetic approach.}, number={1}, publisher={Duzce University}
